Frequently Asked Questions

A bridge day is a strategic vacation day taken between a public holiday and a weekend to create an extended break. For example, if a holiday falls on Thursday, taking Friday off gives you a 4-day weekend using just one PTO day.

takedays syncs with your work calendar and analyzes public holidays in your region. Our AI identifies opportunities where 1–2 vacation days can create 4–5+ day breaks, helping you maximize your PTO allocation throughout the year.

We currently support Germany (all 16 Bundesländer with state-specific holidays), Netherlands, France, Spain, United Kingdom, United States, and Canada. Each country includes national public holidays and regional variations where applicable.

When we identify an optimal vacation window, our AI considers your budget, travel preferences, seasonality, and destination trends to suggest the best trips for that specific time period. You get personalized recommendations that match both your schedule and interests.

takedays is launching in 2026 with free early access for waitlist members. Pricing details will be announced before public launch. Early adopters receive special founder pricing.

takedays is the only travel planner built calendar-first. While other apps help you plan after you’ve decided when to travel, we start by finding the optimal when — analyzing your work schedule and public holidays to maximize time off. Then our AI suggests where to go.
